Expert Tips
Cooking in the Crock Pot - We recommend cooking the chicken cordon bleu on low. But you can cook for 2 hours on high if you prefer.
Chicken - We recommend using raw chicken when cooking this chicken. If you put cooked chicken in the slow cooker it could dry out the chicken.
Meat Thermometer - When we cook meat we always rely on a meat thermometer to ensure that it is cook thoroughly. Because chicken cordon bleu has layers of ingredients, be sure that you are just checking the internal temperature of the chicken.
Thin Chicken - Chicken Cordon Bleu starts with thin chicken breast. Use a meat pounder to thin out the chicken to your preference.
Recipe Variations
Change the Cheese - We used swiss cheese in this recipe, but you can use other types of cheese. Try provolone cheese or mozzarella cheese for different flavors.
Ham Variation - You can use other types of meat for this recipe. We recommend prosciutto, black forest ham, or smoked ham. Another option is to use bacon.
Chicken - Look for thinly slice chicken in the meat market to save you from having to pound the chicken thin.
